You seem to be missing some imports.



import { library } from '@fortawesome/fontawesome-svg-core'
import { FontAwesomeIcon } from '@fortawesome/react-fontawesome'
import { faIgloo } from '@fortawesome/free-solid-svg-icons'

library.add(faIgloo)

    If you want to reference the icon by its name you have to declare a library:



    import ReactDOM from 'react-dom'
    import { library } from '@fortawesome/fontawesome-svg-core'
    import { fab } from '@fortawesome/free-brands-svg-icons'
    import { faCheckSquare, faCoffee } from '@fortawesome/free-solid-svg-icons'

    library.add(fab, faCheckSquare, faCoffee)


    Then use it like this:



    import React from 'react'
    import { FontAwesomeIcon } from '@fortawesome/react-fontawesome'

    export const Beverage = () => (
    <div>
    <FontAwesomeIcon icon="check-square" />
    Favorite beverage: <FontAwesomeIcon icon="coffee" />
    </div>
    )


    Otherwise, you can use explicit imports:



    import ReactDOM from 'react-dom'
    import { FontAwesomeIcon } from '@fortawesome/react-fontawesome'
    import { faCoffee } from '@fortawesome/free-solid-svg-icons'

    const element = <FontAwesomeIcon icon={faCoffee} />

    ReactDOM.render(element, document.body)


    All this bits of details are explained here. The above examples are from there.

      Firstly you should use npm to install the react package




      npm i -g yarn



      yarn add react-native-fontawesome




      After this you must import the data to start using in your project



      import FontAwesome, { Icons } from 'react-native-fontawesome';

      ...
      render() {
      return (
      <View>
      <Text style={{margin: 10, fontSize: 15, textAlign: 'left'}}>
      <FontAwesome>{Icons.chevronLeft}</FontAwesome>
      Text
      </Text>
      </View>
      );
      },

                        -1














                        Firstly you should use npm to install the react package




                        npm i -g yarn



                        yarn add react-native-fontawesome




                        After this you must import the data to start using in your project



                        import FontAwesome, { Icons } from 'react-native-fontawesome';

                        ...
                        render() {
                        return (
                        <View>
                        <Text style={{margin: 10, fontSize: 15, textAlign: 'left'}}>
                        <FontAwesome>{Icons.chevronLeft}</FontAwesome>
                        Text
                        </Text>
                        </View>
                        );
                        },
